Free prostate lecture slated at Winthrop

The Island Now

As part of its ongoing Prostate Cancer Education Series, Winthrop-University Hospital’s Department of Urology will offer a free lecture, “Erectile Dysfunction Associated with Prostate Cancer,” on Wednesday, Sept. 10, from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.  The lecture will be followed by a moderated question and answer session at 7:30 p.m.  Both sessions will be held at the Winthrop Wellness Pavilion, 1300 Franklin Avenue, Suite ML-5 in Garden City.

Dr. Sherwin Zargaroff, attending physician in the Department of Urology, will present the lecture component of the program at 6:30 p.m.  The question and answer session, held at 7:30 p.m., will be moderated by a nurse navigator and physician assistant affiliated with Winthrop’s Department of Urology. This Q & A will service as an open discussion to address any and all questions relating to prostate cancer.  It will be an excellent avenue through which newly diagnosed patients can learn about treatment options and patient experiences; the moderators will also address questions from those currently undergoing treatment.  

The Prostate Cancer Educational Series is held on the second Wednesday of every month.  Individuals may attend the lecture and/or the question and answer session, however, seating is limited and reservations are required. To reserve a space or for further information, please call (516) 663-2316 or email prostatecancersupport@winthrop.org.
